    New X-Ray Chassis from KRG-now shipping!

    I have no idea what process you're using for your polymer, I might assume injection based on your previous employer, but tooling is expensive, and you wouldn't be running up on limitations with shape. So I'll assume low pressure cast, or maybe even something like blow or rotomolding. I work with...

    New X-Ray Chassis from KRG-now shipping!

    So I've been up and down this thread maybe 10 times now. I think I've discovered that while I absolutely get the appeal that the Xray is not for me. At least not as much as the W3C is WITH the X-Ray front end (if it saves 13oz, that's 3.8lbs for a fixed W3C and I'm ALL over that!). I think I'd...

    Tikka T3 CTR?

    You know you almost gave Massoud a heartattack right? Yea, that's the SAKO M-NeverGonnaHappenForYou. Good looking chassis though, although appears to be AI-heavy if not more so. That monopod is slick. It would make too much sense for Beretta to import something that would sell well to an...

    New AI AX and AT pics with rifle Weights!

    Really are gorgeous rifles. Although they're kinda piggies. I guess if all I wanted to do was prone it might be a different story.... But I think I just did the math away from an AI. Esp considering something like the KRG chassis can get down to 3.8lbs or so leaving a rifle that would be...

    First serious bolt gun: AI AT? DTA? Custom Action (Defiance)? Other?

    Just of of curiosity, what is your height and weight? And what specifically do you find uncomfortable?

    First serious bolt gun: AI AT? DTA? Custom Action (Defiance)? Other?

    All good advice! Seems like no one is out-right crapping on the AI. I agree that user barrel change is a great option for me. I also agree that in reality an action and torque wrench would probably be good to go. Skipping DTA. On the custom, I have a defiance action good to go, it's all...

    First serious bolt gun: AI AT? DTA? Custom Action (Defiance)? Other?

    Ok.... So.... I'm looking at either putting together my first serious bolt gun. I have some precision semis and not precision bolt guns. Here are some factors: 1. I'm on a budget but I know when to spend money. I have surefire rifle silencers, I have decent hardware. But, I CAN NOT afford...

    AICS FOR TIkka T3

    I see, that makes sense. I had just figured that long action AI style mags were already working fine in Tikka, shouldn't have assumed.

    AICS FOR TIkka T3

    Can someone explain this to me? All the Tikkas are long action receivers right?... So why wouldn't they have a long action version of the chassis (since it's based on the AICS frame they've had for.... ever ever)?

    Unasnwerable I'm sure, but AT barrel cost?

    All above makes sense. I just wasn't sure how the barrel change system works. For all I know there is a custom machined super expensive collet that no one would bother trying to copy. If it's just timed threads or some other way of headspacing then I imagine aftermarket options.

    Unasnwerable I'm sure, but AT barrel cost?

    Answer on cost seems to ~$800. Any idea if these will ONLY be available from AI or they may be available from some custom shops as well?

    Unasnwerable I'm sure, but AT barrel cost?

    I know the AT system was just announced, and other than it replaces the AW let's just say thats about all I know about it :) Has anyone seen specifics of the barrel change system? Will XYZ custom shop be able to make me a barrel say in 260 or a shorty 308. Or will these be a proposition from...

    Range Report Applied Ballistics Mobile App

    Preach it brother! .... Not sure what could possibly be taking so long. Hire it out! I know from experience it doesn't take nearly this long to do a server side app or an iPhone port of existing software. Developer is either working on something new, or sort of lazy. It's not like there is...

    Range Report Applied Ballistics Mobile App

    Yea... except that if the Author knows they can't keep up with oncoming versions of Android... You'd think he would then absolutely make the resources available to support IOS! Apps written for IOS have a MUCH MUCH larger chance of remaining in working order come new versions. Benefits of a...

    Which bubble level is right for me? (List of available parts and issues with each inside)

    The human eye is pretty amazing, getting everything down to sub 1º should be easy enough (eventually). But yea, I have some of the same concerns. Also, I could see the JEC being also useful for scope leveling or double checking level. I'm not sure if my 700 LA has any room for the JEC as I...

    Which bubble level is right for me? (List of available parts and issues with each inside)

    Between Tubb and JEC... I guess I'll hang out for a little while and see what comes up. I don't need one this week. Also found a buddy that owns a Holland so I can see if I like the location/fit.
